What if the real reason you're stuck isn’t mindset—but a memory your body hasn’t let go of?
In this powerful episode, Amy chats with Laurel Wiers, founder of Optimal Outcome, about how unresolved trauma (even the “small stuff”) shows up in our work, relationships, and leadership. Laurel shares how high achievers unknowingly carry emotional weight that holds them back—and how healing doesn’t have to take years.
From anxiety and burnout to breakthrough and peace... this one’s a game-changer.

Key Takeaways:
- Trauma isn’t always “big”—seemingly small experiences can deeply affect our behavior and identity.
- Traditional talk therapy may not fully resolve trauma stored in the body; modalities like ART and EMDR help reprocess memories more effectively.
- High achievers often mask unresolved pain with performance, leading to burnout and emotional disconnection.
- Reprocessing traumatic memories can shift core beliefs and allow leaders to operate from a place of wholeness.
